Historical

The local market towns are interesting in terms of history. Dartmouth Castle, twinned with Kingswear Castle, is a popular attraction for those interested in sea fairing history and architecture. To learn more about the sea fairing days a visit to Dartmouth Museum, under the Butterwalk in Duke Street in Dartmouth town centre, would be beneficial. Totnes Museum shows fashion through the years. The Charles Babbage room demonstrates his work in modern computing and technology.

Blackawton has the history of a village that was evacuated during the Second World War but also received evacuees later in the war. The Church and its graveyard are interesting to those researching their ancestors.
